The Earthquake in Italy.
LONDON, 11th September. The Minister for Public Works has pro- ceeded to Calabria in a relief train.
The country is described as one vast cemetery; villages wiped out; putrefying corpses littering the ground, and a demented popalation mobbing the trains and clamour- ing for help. Great fissures are visible for miles.

NEW EXCLUSION TREAT P
· PROVISIONS OUTLINED.
In the editorial in this issue allusion is made to the proposed new treaty on the immigration. question as set fonh by the Chinese Govern ment. By the American mail to hand yester day, we received a copy of the text of the treaty, the provisions of which are outlined as follows:-
i
After the date of signing the treaty, labourer of each country shall be excluded from the other, labourers being miners, hawkers, washer- men, fishers who salt or dry fish for export or local trade. Americans or Chinese not laborers are not within the restriction. The treaty is not retroactive, provisions being made for laborers to return to their native countries, certificates being furnished.
Chinese labourers for countries other than America shall have the right to pass through the United States subject to the regulations of
the nation.

BOARDING-HOUSE LAW.
According to papers to hand from home, the Court of Appeal has delivered an important and, as it will be generally thought, salutary judgment on the liability of boarding-house' keepers. It has been assumed for a number of years that the proprietor of a boarding house had nothing like an inc-keeper's responsibility for the property of his guests--that, as Mr. Justice Darling put it in a lower court, there must be "misfeasance" as well as negligence
ed against him. The Master of the Rolls and his colleagues have now given the law an interpretation which is more in accordance with the actual conditions and relations of boarding-house life. The security of the pro- mises, the honesty of servants, and the char acter of the inmates admitted are all under the control of the proprieter, who, in offering ac- commodation to persons and property, is naturally assumed to provide the safeguards of

He volunteered the in- formation that he was going back to bar racks at once, but at reveille next day he was absent and was found as stated dead in the baths. It appears that the only thing missing from his quarters was his cap, and it was through this he was eventually traced. He had on leaving, barracks a certain sum of money in his possession, and it-is known that he went to a certain place near Middle-rd in a rikisha, and the original supposition was that the coolie had murdered him for the sake of this money.
SIR HENRY BLAKE'S RECENT
ANNOUNCEMENT.
At the meeting of the Ceylon Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society, held at "Sirinewasa" the residence of Mr. Ph. Freudenberg, o short time ago, H. E. Sir Henry Blake made the an. nouncement that in an ancient Sanskrit work, Susrain, mertion had been made of the con. nection between mosquites and malaria. The announcement created a stir in medical cicles; and His Excellency, who was approached by Sir Allan Perry, F.C.MO, wrote a note em. bodying the translation of the particular pas sage from Susruta which note was signed by four learned Oriental scholars, including High Priest Sumangala, and read at a meeting of

MAKES A RECORD PASSAGE.
The P. M. S. Siberia arrived Yokohama on

Her arrival caused a great deal of comment as she was not scheduled to appear in the Harbour until Sunday, and inquiry elicited the fact that not only had her passage been unusually speedy but it had broken all previous records. Good as her performance was, it might have been even better but for a delay at Honolulu which caused her, to go easily in the Midway islands, as it is desirable to approach these islands in daylight as they are very low and consequently a danger at night. To approach thus it was necessary to gu from Honolulu at a reduced speed. Even with this drawback he actual steaming time was only thirteen. days, seven hurs. From San Francisco to Honolulu the trip was done in 4 days, 19 hours, ar mins., which beats the record made by the Kora of 4 days, 23 hours, 15 mins. The Siberia, too, was heavily laden on leaving San Fran cisco, her draught to Honolulu being 29 feet. At some stages of the journey she did 22 krots and in the last two days she was doing a knots against a strong current From San Francisco to Honolulu her daily runs were, 381, 438, 445, 455, and 367, the last bringing her into port. 1rom the Midway Islands her runs were 397,- 442, 441, 429, and 452, 96 being run to bring her to port on the last day.

It is affirmed that this rikisha was hired by a man at a certain second class betel in the early hours of the 29th, and that this man got in with a body and ordered the coolic to go to Tanglin Here he is supposed to have deposited his burden in the baths and to have endeavoured to destroy the kikisha by burning it. From this point it is necessary to go back to the arrival in Singa- pore of a certain man and woman. The man is said to be an Australian engaged in pearl ing or some similar occupation and the wo- man passed as his wife. It is alleged that when staying at the Hotel previously indicat od, the couple quarrelled violently, and the man arranged to pay her passage back to Australia. She refused to go, however, and the pair parted. It is then alleged that the soldier Short appeared on the scene in response to a summons from the woman, and it was whilst they were together, that the man caught them, and, so it is stated, murdered the soldier by striking him on the back of the head. Heiben managed by extraordinary skill to carry the dead, body from the hotel without disturbing the authorities, and conveyed his ghastly- burden from the hotel to Tanglin in the rikisha, a long journey.
